Render PDF to DOTM on Android via Java
Convert PDF to DOTM in mobile apps without installing any software
Why to Convert
PDF to DOTM conversion is a useful feature for mobile apps. DOTM is a Microsoft Word template file format that is used to store macro-enabled documents. It is a great way to store documents with macros and other settings that can be used in multiple documents.
How Aspose.Total Helps for PDF to DOTM Conversion
Aspose.Total for Android Java is a package that provides two APIs to help you integrate PDF to DOTM conversion feature in your mobile apps. The first API is Aspose.PDF for Android via Java, which is used to convert PDF files to DOC. The second API is Aspose.Words for Android Java, which is used to render DOC to DOTM. By using these two APIs, you can easily integrate PDF to DOTM conversion feature in your mobile apps.
Convert PDF to DOTM on Android via Java
Get Started with Android via Java APIs
You can easily use Aspose.Total for Android via Java directly from Maven and install Aspose.PDF for Android via Java and Aspose.Words for Android via Java in your applications.
Alternatively, you can get a ZIP file from downloads .
// load PDF file with an instance of Document class
Document document = new Document("template.pdf");
// save PDF as a DOC
document.save("DocOutput.doc", SaveFormat.DOC);
// load DOC with an instance of Document
Document outputDocument = new com.aspose.words.Document("DocOutput.doc");
// call save method while passing SaveFormat.DOTM
outputDocument.save("output.dotm", SaveFormat.DOTM);
Get PDF File Information on Android via Java
Before converting PDF to DOTM, you might need information about the document including author, creation date, keywords, modify date, subject, and title. This information is helpful for the decision making for the conversion process. Using the powerful Aspose.PDF for Android via Java API, you can get all of it. To get file-specific information about a PDF file, first get the DocumentInfo object using getInfo method. Once the DocumentInfo object is retrieved, you can get the values of the individual properties.
// load PDF document
Document doc = new Document("template.pdf");
// get document information
DocumentInfo docInfo = doc.getInfo();
// show document information
System.out.println("Author: " + docInfo.getAuthor());
System.out.println("Creation Date: " + docInfo.getCreationDate());
System.out.println("Keywords: " + docInfo.getKeywords());
System.out.println("Modify Date: " + docInfo.getModDate());
System.out.println("Subject: " + docInfo.getSubject());
System.out.println("Title: " + docInfo.getTitle());
Insert Endnotes in DOTM Document in Android Apps
Apart from document conversion, you can also add a bunch of other features inside your Android Applications using Aspose.Words for Android via Java API. One of that feature is inserting endnotes and numbering in DOTM document. If you want to insert a footnote or an endnote in a DOTM document, please use DocumentBuilder.InsertFootnote method. This method inserts a footnote or endnote into the document. EndnoteOptions and FootnoteOptions classes represent numbering options for footnote and endnote.
// load document
Document doc = new Document("input.DOC");
// initialize document builder
DocumentBuilder builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);
// add text in it
builder.write("Some text");
// insert footnote
builder.insertFootnote(FootnoteType.ENDNOTE, "Endnote text.");
// initialize endnote options
EndnoteOptions option = doc.getEndnoteOptions();
// set restart rule
option.setRestartRule(FootnoteNumberingRule.RESTART_PAGE);
// set position
option.setPosition(EndnotePosition.END_OF_SECTION);
// save the document to disk.
doc.save("output.dotm", SaveFormat.DOTM);
